Wireless LAN connectivity
Wireless LAN connectivity allows wireless access to the on-campus network without using a LAN cable.
Wireless LAN connectivity to the on-campus network is available only where wireless access points are located. From one access point, you can communicate with multiple wireless LAN-enabled PCs.
Since connectivity to wireless access points is affected by such factors as distance, physical obstacles, and other radio waves on the same frequency as the wireless LAN, the range of each wireless access is limited. Also, as distance increases between you and the access point, the quality of radio waves deteriorates and so communication with the access point becomes more difficult.
